Our aim is to promote the understanding and application of Behavioral Safety
The Behavioral Safety Now Conference is an established conference in its 14th year that includes an educational program for all levels of management, safety professionals and employee teams who have an interest in learning about the behavioral safety approach. All proceeds benefit the Cambridge Center for Behavioral Studies, a Massachusetts non-profit organization.
Since 1996, Behavioral Safety Now has provided a forum for discussing issues in behavior-based safety (BBS) relevant to the diverse stakeholders involved in behavioral safety.
It’s a meeting where BBS experts can illustrate and extend ‘best practices’ in behavioral safety, where vendors and consultants can promote BBS products and services, where practitioners can share success stories and questions, and where novices can learn the fundamentals of the behavioral approach to safety. The conference now includes other applications of behavioral techniques, including areas of performance such as quality, customer service and productivity.
Attendees have the opportunity to participate in educational workshops and informative presentations (both practice and theory). They also have an invaluable opportunity to network and participate in discussion sessions with others who are applying behavioral processes at the workplace.
Workshops and Presentations
Roughly half of the presentations are by individuals and teams from industry who are actually using behavioral methods in the workplace on a day-to-day basis. The remaining presentations are from consultants and researchers who advance the field by relating best practices to current behavioral theory.
Whether you are just beginning to implement a behavior-based safety process or are in the advanced stages of development, the Behavioral Safety Now program will offer presentations and workshops at just the right level for you.
Quality Safety Edge hosts the BSN conference and works with a conference program committee that consists of individuals representing other leading organizations in the field of behavioral safety.
